  1. Lukewarm water is less than favorable since it is not good for drinking, bathing, or washing clothes. Lukewarm in baseball keeps you in the race until September. Missing playoffs, however, will not get you the top draft picks.
  2. For CC and Arnold, DH is a not a place where good bats/bad defenders live. It’s a place where position players get a rest. They like their hitters on the 25 man roster to have some defensive flexibility, it seems. I think this is noticeably costing us Hiura/Black would be on my shortlist for DH right now.
  3. Tickets were crazy high for todays game on Stubhub. People are ecstatic in Cincy. Over $100 for upper deck in back corners down the line.
  4. Key word is threat… I think to some that is one thing and something altogether different to another. Me? Is it still possible.? Yes, of course. Is it likely or even probable? No, of course not. So the possibility to me is 10% or so… 1 out of 10. So this is still a threat… to me. I still feel the Brewers, Cubs, and Cards will finish in top 3.
  5. Hope the team can tack on some runs here…
  6. And the Crew gets out of the 8th… Hope Houser can keep this role…
  7. Game thread… do it elsewhere. I dont want to respond to Red hype or your new fandom here (but I will).
  8. If Reds are over .500, I will be surprised. Long season.
  9. Bandwagon. I would be more impressed if you were talking high of them in April or May…. or really any time before the streak. Maybe you were, I don’t know.
  10. I don’t feel comfortable about Black’s defense yet, especially with the switch from 2B to 3B. I don’t know why they switched him, but I can’t believe it was because he was so great at 2B. I hope that they give him a shot to play 1B, as well. And why Black is listed at 5’10” is super confusing. Every athlete right down to grade school will be listed at how tall they actually are or a couple inches taller, not 4 inches shorter. Never seen this before…
  11. Contreras is at 17% for throwing out runners… not that it is his fault all the time.
  12. If he cannot play an infield position, Black is a prime candidate for a trade. Our OF is stacked for years to come.
  13. Not a solution. Pace would be awful. When robots come, we’ll ask why we didn’t use this earlier…. Just like pitch clock.
  14. Seem is the key word…. I understand that he needed to go because of the bat. Just making an observation that we miss his glove.
  15. And Adames is MUCH worse this year than last. To the topic, he is STILL hitting #2 or even #3! But just maybe we call up Hiura? Ha! DH OPS .561…..five sixty one!
  16. Bring Hiura up to DH regularly. Agree with Frelick and Wiemer too. Can always bring Wiemer up later.
  17. And then bring him up, correct? —-Team DH OPS is .561
  18. Hiura hits .866 against RHP and it’s all about him striking out too much or how he cannot play defense. Just put him at DH and hit him low in lineup. Fairly sure he can strike out 50% of the time and hit 200 points better than our current DH OPS numbers .561… I fully expect him and Frelick to hit in the middle of the lineup come August and September. Are they so great? No. Just a low bar in our organization. And, of course again, I’d like to again point out Hiura, his warts and all, had a better OPS than Adames, our #2 or #3 hitter,last year. And Hiura has a .331 avg, 12 HR in 112 AB, 1.074 OPS this year in AAA. Just let this guy play DH everyday low in order for a month and give this guy some confidence. Jerked around constantly by organization.
